Softphone CIPC/Jabber Voice / Bira is it legal to use from India while working from home

Hello,

 

We want to provide a softphone option for users while working from home, we are not sure about the legal restriction in India as employees would be outside the office premises. We do have geolocation and logical partitioning configured so that devices can send calls via respective site Gateway. 

 

Thanks

TRAI does not explicitly define the restrictions in place. TRAI regulates that IP to PSTN calls should not result in a toll bypass resulting in loss of revenue to the ISP. As long is this is taken care of, calls should be legally allowed.
My advise would be to talk to your service provider. As for your scenario above, office VoIP infra should be restricted to office premises only. I cannot have Jabber etc logged in from my home and use my office PSTN line to make calls.
